Diagnosticada com lúpus aos 12 anos de idade, a jovem Alana Duran recebeu um presente de muito especial da namorada Lori Interlicchio. As duas se conheceram pelo aplicativo Tinder.
No fundo de uma caixa cheia de lembrancinhas, um cartão que imitava a interface do Tinder e dizia: "Tatuagens são legais, mas prefiro ter cicatrizes iguais". Lori doaria seu rim para Alana.
Publicado no último sábado (21), o vídeo da surpresa chegou a mais de 97 mil visualizações. "É incrível que ela esteve disposta a fazer o teste e está super animada para doar um de seus rins para mim. Lori, te amo tanto e estou tão animada que vamos fazer isto juntas. Você é absolutamente a melhor", acrescentou Alana.
Assista ao momento da surpresa:
It's a Match!As most of you know I was diagnosed with Lupus at the age of 12. Lupus is an autoimmune disease where my body's immune system is overactive and it starts to attack different parts of my body; thinking that my body is a foreign invader. In my case my Lupus was very active when I was younger resulting in a hip replacement, going into congestive heart failure, getting a pacemaker implanted, going into kidney failure and ultimately going on dialysis. I've been waiting patiently for a kidney since 2011. It's been 4 years and no luck yet UNTIL a little while back my wonderfully amazing girlfriend Lori Interlicchio went and got tested to see if she was a match to donate a kidney to me. It turns out she is! Who knew that when we both swiped right on Tinder that day, that we would be more than just girlfriends but that she would be my kidney donor! It's so funny how things work out. Both of us going into this relationship not expecting anything out of the ordinary. It's just so amazing to me that she was willing to get tested and now she's super excited to donate one of her kidneys to me. Lori, I love you so much and I'm so excited that we get to do this together. You're the absolute best.WATCH TILL THE VERY END! :)
